Title: Imitrex induced sickness?
Post by Carl_D on Mar 12^th, 2004, 10:59pm

The last 3 injections I took made me so fricken sick I puked my brains out. Since I started using the 'Trex, it has made me nausious, but never like this.
Has anyone else had this happen? It has me worried that maybe my body is rejecting it. If I have to stop using it - I will quite literally go infuckingsane!

Peace,
Carl D

Carl,

Imitrex has never made me sick. Maybe somone else will post that it has. Are you sure it might not be a stomach virus, flu or something else making you sick.

Carl_D
I have used trex for about 10 years and have never gotten the ( sick) feeling you describe...
I truely hope your bod is not rejecting it... personally I've never heard of body rejection...
I used to use just the injections as that is what I had to have so that it acted quickly. I got daring and now use a combination of the injection and the nasel. The injection is a must for the rude awakenings, now during the awake hours the nasel seems to work fair enough. Not as quick but if thats all ya got then thats what I use., besides it's less intrusive...Take care now...PFDAN. Mr.YL

I know I have puked quite a few times while my headache is ramping up to it's maximum pain. As soon as it reaches the excrutiating plato, I don't feel sick any more.
I have never puked from the trex. Are you injecting a full shot Carl, or are you using the imitrex tip of only using the 1/3rd

I haven't got sick the last couple of injections. not sure why I did before.
I am using 1/2 dose injections to abort, and am now in a struggle with medicaid to keep a months supply. It seems they feel 5 vials is a worthy months supply. I am fighting it though, and a friend gave me some "Trex tabs, which are better than nothing at this point. Also have some Amerge, which I am using now.

Peace,
